Several people have offered to help me with my launch of Double Negative. Thank you all. I'll be in touch with you as soon as I have more information about the cover, the actual launch date etc. I'm still at the "Coming Soon" stage of the process, so if anyone else wants to lend a hand leave that in a comment.

DOUBLE NEGATIVE, EVERNIGHT TEEN

*****

In honor of Maya Angelou, a few of her words that struck a chord with me.

1928-2014 What a beautiful DASH she has.

"This a wonderful day. I've never seen this one before."

"We must be warriors in the struggle against ignorance."

What are your small celebrations this Friday? Are you joining the Write Club this year? Can you help me with my launch? What are some of your favorite Maya Angelou words?

There are some great quotes from Maya Angelou aren't there? Hard to pick a favourite. Will be joining the Write Club fun. If I can help with a cover reveal or something for Double Negative let me know.

I must remember that first quote of Angelou's and take it to heart!In case I didn't tell you earlier, I'm happy to help you with the launch. If I already told you, call me redundant. ;)There's a desktop under all these papers? I thought it was only a rumor that such a thing could exist...

My favourite Maya Angelou quote? “I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” SO TRUE.... and put me down as a "helper" for your book launch... (not sure if I volunteered before...)Last year I enjoyed reading the entries...

I gave up on a desk - it made writing seem too much like work. Bleck! I keep my laptop on a hassock by the couch in front of the TV and do awful things to my back by hunching over it. Yes, I'm a very bad girl. :P

For your book, I'm happy to be your minion - if you don't mind a hunchbacked one. You can call me Igor.

Maya Angelou's life, all around, was inspiration-in-action. I am saddened and this world is less one beautiful light pressing against the darkness. But I'm humbled in knowing her light helped to brighten others so they - we - can continue pressing against the darkness.

I've always regretted that Paul got to review Alligators Overhead, but my schedule was so crazy then. It still is, but count me in whether or not you need reviewers. To think I was coming here to invite you to do a guest post. I still want one, but this is even better!
